Chosen from Over 1,000 Companies, Pitch59 Joins Elite Group of Real Estate Innovators
Pitch59 has officially been selected for the 2025 NAR REACH program—an exclusive growth accelerator backed by the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR). Out of more than 1,000 real estate tech companies considered this year, only eight were chosen… and Pitch59 made the cut.

So what is NAR REACH and why does it matter?
REACH is more than a badge of honor. It’s a rigorous, invite-only program designed to identify and scale the most promising technology companies serving the real estate industry. Created by Second Century Ventures (SCV), the strategic investment arm of NAR, REACH provides startups with access to real estate’s most influential leaders, practitioners, and organizations across residential and commercial sectors.
In short: REACH connects the right innovations with the right people, faster.
Less than 1% of applicants are selected.
Every year, REACH evaluates over 1,000 companies that are building tools for Realtors, brokers, associations, and adjacent sectors. Only a handful—fewer than 1%—are accepted into the U.S. cohort. The bar is high because the stakes are high: the industry needs real solutions to real problems.
And that’s exactly why Pitch59 stood out.
Why Pitch59 Was Selected
Let’s face it—Realtors today are navigating a fast-moving, competitive market. Technology is everywhere, but connection is harder to come by. Tools that promise efficiency often fall short on empathy. In this environment, trust and human connection aren’t just nice to have—they’re what drive business.
That’s where Pitch59 shines.
We’ve built our platform around one core belief: when you lead with who you are, referrals follow. Pitch59’s Video PitchCards make it easy for real estate professionals to introduce themselves, build trust, and stand out—authentically.
Here’s what sets us apart:
- We humanize digital introductions. Realtors don’t need more cold emails or static bios. They need a way to show up like they would in real life.
- We drive meaningful referrals. People refer people, not logos or profiles. PitchCards give others something real to share.
- We scale connection, not noise. It’s not about saying more—it’s about being remembered.
REACH recognized that. Their mission is to bring innovation that creates real impact for Realtors and their clients, and Pitch59 fits that vision perfectly.
What This Means for the Real Estate Community
As part of the 2025 REACH cohort, Pitch59 will gain access to some incredible resources:
- Strategic mentorship from industry veterans
- Pilot opportunities with brokerages and associations
- Exposure to decision-makers across NAR’s 1.5 million-member network
But more importantly, it means we’ll be better positioned to serve you, the realtors, brokers, and businesses who believe that real connection is the key to real growth.
This is just the beginning.
Joining REACH is a huge milestone for us, but we see it as a starting line—not a finish line. Over the coming months, we’ll be expanding our reach, evolving our platform, and helping more professionals lead with their most powerful asset: their story.
We built Pitch59 to help people be seen, be trusted, and be referred. The REACH program believes in that mission—and now we’re ready to bring it to an even larger stage.
And while this recognition comes from the real estate world, the power of a great pitch goes far beyond it. PitchCards aren’t just for REALTORS®—they’re for any professional who grows their business through trust, referrals, and real human connection.
